We had planned to eat in Mill Hill in north west London. My husband checked the online menus of several places and chose Numa because they specifially stated that some of their dishes were home made and my husband wanted that.
Numa restaurant serves Middle Eastern food. The word numa means 'so what' in Hebrew, according to their website. It is also written as pneuma is Greek for breath, spirit or soul. Perhaps think of it as soul food. Our server was Greek. Numa is also a word in Arabic and Indian and other languages.
Attractive features of the decor included an arch over the bar.
On the back wall is an elephant.
Food
Olives were placed on the table when we arrived. My Prosecco came up fast.
I had checked the menu in advance by looking at their website.
Our starters included potato wedges coated in truffles. I could not see any specks of black truffle. My husband said. 'It must be prepared using truffle salt. That is very common. '
Main Courses
We had enough food to have the surplus packed up by the restaurant.
For the main course, my shredded chicken was accompanied by pots of garnish.
The steak was the runaway leader. The most expensive dish for good reason. A thick and soft steak.Accompanied by those lovely potatoes.
